i have been trying to make my urls "pretty" / human readable, the urls at the moment are:
[BASE_URL]/?action=viewProposal&proposaltitle=tesst
I want to rewrite them to be just [BASE_URL]/tesst
I tried using the following code and modifying it but it wouldn't work, ie. it didn't redirect the pages but didn't throw any errors.
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^users/(\d+)*$ ./profile.php?id=$1
RewriteRule ^threads/(\d+)*$ ./thread.php?id=$1
RewriteRule ^search/(.*)$ ./search.php?query=$1
Will the PHP GET functions still work properly as ?action defined whether its a view / edit / delete?
I am assuming base url your index.php try following rule,
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([\w-]+)$ index.php?action=viewProposal&proposaltitle=$1 [QSA,L]

for the last hours I cant seem to figure out why my .htaccess file is redirecting to a blank url. Here is my htaccess file below.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)$
RewriteRule ^([^\.]+)$ $1.php [NC,L]
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^id=([0-9]*)$
RewriteRule ^(.*)$ /test/user-profile/%1? [R=301,L]
I am trying to rewrite www.example/test/user-profile?id=4 ->>> www.example/test/user-profile/4
It does rewrite the url, however then the page has "The requested URL was not found on this server." the htaccess file is in public_html folder, so I am trying to select a specific user inside www.exampleurl.com/test/userslist.php which would go to www.exampleurl.com/test/user-profile.php. It all works perfectly before using htaccess. www.example/test/user-profile?id=4 ->>> www.example/test/user-profile/4 but it just wont find the url or file? im a super noob folder path below -> public_html/test/userslist.php & user-profile.php
Just cant seem to figure out what to do. Yes I do have mod-rewrite on.
With your shown samples, please try following htaccess rules file.
This assumes that you are hitting link www.example/test/user-profile?id=4 in browser which is redirecting to www.example/test/user-profile/4 and is being served by index.php with parameters user-profile=user-profile in your url and id=digits in url. You can also change them as per your need.
Make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /test/
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/(test/user-profile)\?id=(\d+)\s [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1/%2? [R=301,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^([^/]*/)/([*/]*)/?$ test/user-profile.php?user-profile=$1&id=$2 [QSA,L]
2nd solution: In case someone is hitting url example.com/test/user-profile/7 then try following htaccess rules.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /test/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^([^/]*/)/([^/]*)/(\d+)/?$ test/user-profile.php?user-profile=$1&id=$2 [QSA,L]
I'm in the process of trying to prettify my URLs
From: http://localhost/blog.php?id=1
To: http://localhost/blog/1
I've added the below to my .htaccess
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^blog/([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ blog.php?id=$1 [NC,L]
From my understanding that should now redirect when I call my "to" url in PHP header("location: /blog/".id); it takes me to the relevant page, and my $_GET['id'] should have a value. It's coming up empty
I've been messing around with a few different regular expressions, but I don't think that's the issue.
In the apache config I changed "AllowOverride" to 'All'
To check to see if the .htaccess was even being used I put in some invalid regex, and got an error in apache_error.log
I've been on a ton of different pages asking the same thing, and watched plenty of YouTube vids, but I can't see what I'm missing
Have your htaccess Rules file in following manner. Please make sure to clear your browser cache before testing your URLs.
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
##Rules for external redirect to blog/1 here.
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{ENV:REDIRECT_STATUS} ^$
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} \s/(blog)\.php\?id=(\d+)\s [NC]

##Rules for internal rewrite to blog.php file here.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^blog/([\w-]+)/?$ blog.php?id=$1 [QSA,NC,L]

hi guys i am trying to rewrite a url but getting errors
i would like to rewrite
www.example.com/photos.php?u=username
to
www.example.com/#username/photos
here is my code
IndexIgnore *
RewriteEngine On
Options +FollowSymLinks
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{SCRIPT_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^#([A-Za-z0-9]+)$ user.php?u=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^#([A-Za-z0-9]+)$/^([A-Za-z0-9]+)$ user.php?u=$1 photos.php?u=$1 [NC,L]
Your first RewriteRule looks fine, but your second RewriteRule is full of errors.
You're trying to feed the right hand of the rule with 2 different address as seen at:
user.php?u=$1 photos.php?u=$1
Your rule on the left hand have a terminator sign at the middle of the regex and after it you start a new regex which would not work as well:
^#([A-Za-z0-9]+)$/^([A-Za-z0-9]+)$
This should work for your needs and it should be placed inside your .htaccess file, which should be located inside your domain ROOT folder along with both the photos.php and the user.php files or it will not work.
IndexIgnore *
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^#([a-zA-Z0-9]+)/photos$ photos.php?u=$1 [QSA,L]
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteRule ^#([a-zA-Z0-9]+)$ user.php?u=$1 [QSA,L]
If you have a different folder setup then update your question with more information on it so I can update the rule to fit it.
The above rules will allow you to access the photo page in the following format:
www.example.com/#username/photos
And the users page in the following format:
www.example.com/#username
First of all, I know there are plenty of similar questions about this around, but
None of them seem to work for me
None of them actually address exactly what I want
What I want is, as the title suggests, to redirect URLs without the .php extension to the actual .php file - changing the URL if possible (which I presume is just handled by [R=301]). The latest thing I tried was this:
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-l
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [R=301]
That doesn't work. I can still cant access /about.php with /about. (.htaccess rules themselves are working fine though)
I understand RegEx fine, but htaccess rules just mess with my head =[
So what should I do?
Now I know what you're thinking
One of you will say this: "Why do you want to do this? Just get rid of extensions completely and access your pages via /about or /about/ with a trailing slash."
I'd like to do that, it looks quite good. Problem is SEO - from which I assume my page ranks will get annihilated because all of a sudden they're on different URLs. So before you suggest that, suggest how I'd keep my page ranks first.
What I'm actually doing is essentially URL shortening for a poster - it's a lot easier for people to remember mywebsite.com/about than mywebsite.com/about.php.
Enable mod_rewrite and .htaccess through httpd.conf and then put this code in your .htaccess under DOCUMENT_ROOT directory:
Options +FollowSymLinks -MultiViews
# Turn mod_rewrite on
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
## hide .php extension
# To externally redirect /dir/foo.php to /dir/foo
RewriteCond %{THE_REQUEST} ^[A-Z]{3,}\s([^.]+)\.php [NC]
RewriteRule ^ %1 [R=302,L]
# To internally forward /dir/foo/ to /dir/foo.php
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{DOCUMENT_ROOT}/$1.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.*?)/?$ $1.php [L]
Please Make sure you have MultiViews options disabled using: Options -MultiViews
Beware of Apaches multiviews
Once you verify it is working fine, replace R=302 to R=301. Avoid using R=301 (Permanent Redirect) while testing your mod_rewrite rules.
Please make sure that there's mod_rewrite on your Apache HTTP Server and try this:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ /$1.php [R]
But clear your cache or use another browser first before checking the redirecting dynamic URLs, because you've been previously used the [R=301] flag! For more info. about that, please visit: https://stackoverflow.com/a/15999177/2007055
Could you try this one but it's quite the same as the previous code:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1.php
And when it works, try adding these two conditions above the rewrite rule:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^([a-zA-Z0-9_-]+)$ http://%{HTTP_HOST}/$1.php
And when any of these codes above does not work, I think there's a problem in your Apache HTTP Server.
That works for me.
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [L,QSA]
You can chain it if you want e.g.
RewriteEngine On
# Remove trailing slashes.
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.+)/$ /$1 [R=permanent,QSA]
# Redirect to HTML
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.html -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.html [L,QSA]
# Redirect to PHP
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.php -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.php [L,QSA]
# Redirect to ASP
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME}.asp -f
RewriteRule ^(.+)$ $1.asp [L,QSA]
i want to change a url like : localhost/site/home.php?p=index to localhost/site/index
i use this code in my htaccess file
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ home.php?p=$1 [L,NS]
but when i write like localhost/site/home.php?p=profile.user i get the 404 error, and go to this link
localhost/profile.user
so how can i fix itthanks
Let's look at your rewrites first:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^(.*)/?$ home.php?p=$1 [L,NS]
This is relative rewrite: the replacement text home.php... does not begin with a slash. Relative rewrites in a per-directory context (<Directory> or .htaccess) require a RewriteBase directive to be configured, otherwise they do the wrong thing.
Secondly, your rule is backwards, If you want to rewrite the home.php URL to the site/index one, you have to put the home.php match on the left side, and the site/index on the right:
RewriteRule ^home.php?p=(.*) /site/$1
Notice that I have an absolute rewrite. This means that mod_rewrite will create a URL out of the rewrite by sticking http://example.com on it. A new request is internally generated now for http://example.com/site/<whatever>. We can get away without using RewriteBase since we have no relative rewrites.
As for your last question, it is not clear why when you access localhost/site/home.php?p=profile.user you're being taken to localhost/profile.user. I'm suspecting that it's your home.php script doing that, perhaps. You're trying to use mod_rewrite to hijack that particular kind of PHP request and send it elsewhere, right?
What you meant is probably: you want to rewrite this way:
http://mysite.com/index => http://mysite.com/home.php?p=index
So this should work
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule ^/?$ /home.php?p=$1 [QSA,L]
Now if you want the opposite:
http://mysite.com/home.php?p=index => http://mysite.com/index
This should work:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule /home\.php$ / [QSA,L]
